Previous research has found that the human brain reaches maturity sometime in the 20s, but a new study suggests that it never stops developing. Neuroscientists at the University of Cambridge have ...

In about one out of every 1,000 pregnancies, the neural tube, a key nervous system structure, fails to close properly.

We have long believed that brain growth stops and aging begins once we pass the age of 20. However, a study by British university researchers analyzing brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data has ...

Researchers from the Paris Brain Institute and Sainte-Justine University Hospital in Montreal have, for the first time, ...

Researchers have built the first-ever molecular atlas of the human brain vasculature at single-cell resolution, spanning from early development to adulthood and through disease stages such as brain ...

A study suggesting that the human brain enters a stable phase around age 32 has people in their 20s feeling validated. University of Cambridge neuroscientists released their research results on ...

Imagine if keeping your brain in top shape was as routine as brushing your teeth in the morning or exercising before work. Brain health is more than simply the absence of disease; it is the state of ...

How does the neural tube close? A new study uses physics-based modeling to reveal the actin "purse-string" mechanism and cellular coordination that prevents spina bifida.
